6 Ideal Dog Breeds for Introverts

3 months ago

Every
person has different personality. An introvert is someone who’s happy in his
own world. Some people love to connect with others, share their stories and
prefer to work in teams. Whereas, introverts are complete opposite. They’d
rather have a job where minimum interaction is required. Therefore, it can be
challenging to get a dog for them. A pet comes with many responsibilities, so it’s
important to choose a dog breed that is compatible with your personality.

Dogs
are man’s best companion. If you are an introvert, it can be tiring for you to
go out and socialize with people. Dogs have very strong instincts. They don’t
talk or judge, and for an introvert, it’s really important to have a companion
that’ll understand him.

Here we
have compiled a list which focuses on people with different personality traits
and the dogs that are best suited for them.

A
Dog That Adjusts to Your lifestyle

As
an introvert, you may find it difficult to make lifestyle adjustments when
adopting a new dog. No one can change their behaviour and nature for others. Greyhound
is a perfect fit for those who don’t want to make major changes in their life
after getting a pet.

Greyhound

Greyhoundwill easily adjust to your schedule. They are very reserved (Just
like introverts!) and will be active when you want them to be. You won’t have
to look after them 24/7. If you have a yard, they won’t need anything else as
they like to roam freely when they’re feeling playful.

Being
a Couch Potato

There are some days when you just want to curl up
on a couch and read a good book. This toy dog breed will be your partner during
those lazy days.

Cavalier King
Charles Spaniels

Cavaliers are very attentive
and affectionate. They love to play, but are also happy to stay home with you
if that’s what makes you happy.

Loners

It’s said that introverts always like to be alone.
That is not entirely true; they do enjoy spending time with friends and family,
but they also enjoy solitude from time to time.

German Shepherd

Normally, German Shepherds are
known for their intelligence. This dog breed is very alert and will sense your
mood very quickly. They’re always curious and have a positive aura so you can
rely on them whenever you’re feeling lonely.

Need Some Space

Introverts are happiest when they are in their
comfort zone. Well, Newfoundland will definitely take up space as it’s very big
in size. But that’s something you’ll appreciate very much after you’ve spent
some time with this adorable dog breed.

Newfoundland

The best way to describe
Newfoundland dog is a giant fluff of cuteness. Newfoundland’s heart is as big
as his size and gives best cuddles! This breed requires regular exercise and
can be a great addition to your family.

Having
a Special Bond

Introverts feel very strongly about everything.
So, they need a dog that will form a special bond and will be always loyal.

Chow Chow

Chow Chow, or commonly known as
“a dog with blue/black tongue,” is extremely loyal to his owner. This breed is
very quiet, doesn’t require much, and can be an excellent companion for
lifetime.

Getting
Out Of Comfort Zone

Even introverts like to engage in meaningful
conversations with others. Contrary to popular belief, introverts are not
entirely anti-social. And Basenji is a breed that will encourage its owner to
go outside and interact with others.

Basenji

This
breed of dog is comparatively quiet (doesn’t even bark!). You need to be
familiar with their personality before getting the dog. Although they don’t
need constant attention, they do require regular walks and outdoor activities.

It doesn’t matter if you are an introvert,
extrovert, or ambivert. If you can find a perfect dog breed that suits your
personality, you will have the most memorable moments with your furry pal.
Every dog is special, irrespective of their breed. But deciding which dog will
be compatible with you is important. You don’t want to get a dog that you can’t
handle. So, do your research and then decide which dog breed will be best for
you.
